Interior Car Care: Taking Care of Your Lincoln’s Interior

A Lincoln is a luxurious vehicle, but it won’t feel that luxurious for long without some good interior car care. Here are some tips from your Lincoln dealer about how to guarantee you’ll always enjoy riding in your Lincoln.

Interior Car Care Tips From Your Lincoln Dealer

Pay Attention to the Upholstery

Maintaining the upholstery in your Lincoln is key to preserving its luxurious feel. For leather upholstery, use a high-quality leather cleaner followed by a conditioner to maintain its softness and prevent cracking. If your Lincoln has fabric seats, regular vacuuming and spot cleaning with a gentle fabric cleaner will keep them looking fresh.

Wood Trim Maintenance

Many Lincoln models feature elegant wood trim, which requires special care. Dust the wood trim regularly with a soft cloth to prevent buildup. To maintain the shine and prevent warping, use a wood-specific cleaner and polish that is safe for automotive use.

Touchscreen and Control Cleaning

Advanced touchscreen displays and control panels require careful cleaning. Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using liquids or harsh chemicals which can damage the sensitive electronic components. For stubborn fingerprints, slightly dampen the cloth with water, but ensure it’s not overly wet.

Protecting the Carpet

The carpet in your Lincoln should be vacuumed regularly to remove dirt and debris. Use a carpet cleaner for any stains or spills. Place custom-fit floor mats from your Lincoln dealership to protect the underlying carpet from wear and tear, particularly in high-traffic areas like the driver’s side.

Door and Window Seal Care

Regularly inspect and clean the rubber seals around doors and windows. Keeping these seals clean and conditioned prevents them from drying out and cracking, which can lead to air and water leaks. Use a rubber protectant to keep the seals in good condition, and ​especially as you come into the winter season.

Climate Control System Maintenance

Ensure the air quality inside your Lincoln is top-notch by regularly replacing the cabin air filter. This helps keep the air fresh and free of pollutants. Additionally, cleaning the vent grilles with a soft brush or cloth will prevent dust accumulation.

Detailing the Steering Wheel

The steering wheel is one of the most frequently touched parts of the interior. Clean it with a suitable cleaner for its material, whether leather or synthetic, and use a soft cloth to avoid abrasion. Applying a protectant can also help preserve its look and feel.

Interior Chrome Accents Care

Many Lincoln interiors feature chrome accents which require gentle care. Clean these areas with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner designed for chrome. Avoid abrasive materials or cleaners that can scratch or dull the chrome finish.

These are just a few tips ​that can help. Your dealership has lots of products ​that can help you protect the inside of your ​Lincoln, so to learn more, contact us at Bayway Lincoln right away.
